I include every possible combination of nodes that reside at finite levels. If there are not nodes residing at infinite levels, then I include every path. If you don't agree, show another path.
But remember, I do not stop at a node at a finite level, but in addition, I append every possible tail, i.e., every tail that can be defined by a finite word.
I beg every amount of money that you will not be able to find a missing path. Hence yor assertion is based only on (counterfactual) belief. A typical matheologian.
